I'm reading the other threads and it seems that everyone else has come to fellrunning from running first.

At the moment I cycle to work (4 miles there, 4 miles back and on the flat) so that's not a great deal of fitness. In a few weeks I move house so won't be cycling to work anymore, and I know I'm going to miss it - however I will be living on the side of a hill in Rossendale so I though, AHA! I'll do fell running. I went in to buy a sports bra and said "I'm taking up fell running" and they fell about laughing. It does seem to be something that people go into after doing other running...

So I've started going for jog/walks to try and get myself into it, but bimbling along the flat is very boring, and I keep detouring onto the beach. I'm definitely not a road runner!

I'm looking forward to it, but am I being a bit insane wanting to head up hills when I'm not even a "proper" runner - ie not very fit?
